The purpose of school bus services is to carry children from their homes to school and back. Scheduling and routing such services manually can be a long and tedious task, as it gives rise to complex combinatorial problems. To tackle those, we propose vario ...
In this thesis we consider two optimal routing problems in networks. Both are NP-hard and are often used to modelize real life problems of large size. We first present the capacitated arc routing problem (CARP). In this problem, we have to serve a set of c ...
The resource constrained elementary shortest path problem (RCESPP) arises as a pricing subproblem in branch-and-price algorithms for vehicle routing problems with additional constraints. We address the optimization of the RCESPP and we present and compare ...
This dissertation focuses on disassembly scheduling, which is the problem of determining the quantity and timing of disassembling used or end-of-life products while satisfying the demand of their parts/components over a given planning horizon. The objectiv ...
We consider the school bus routing and scheduling problem, where transportation demand is known and bus scheduling can be planned in advance. We present a comprehensive methodology designed to support the decision of practitioners. We first propose a model ...
The common point between the different chapters of the present work is graph theory. We investigate some well known graph theory problems, and some which arise from more specific applications. In the first chapter, we deal with the maximum stable set probl ...
In this paper we develop a localized value-ordering heuristic for distributed resource allocation problems. We show how this value ordering heuristics can be used to achieve desirable properties (increased effectiveness, or better allocations). The specifi ...
We consider the following integer feasibility problem: Given positive integer numbers a0, a1,&mellip;,an with gcd(a1,&mellip;,an) = 1 and a = (a1,&mellip;,an), does there exist a ...
This paper studies the interaction between the communication costs in a sensor network and the structure of the data that it measures. We formulate an optimization problem definition for power efficient data gathering and assess its computational difficult ...
This thesis describes a successful application of advanced computational methods to tasks in the field of active structural control. The control-task involves finding good control movements for a highly coupled, non-linear structure. It is demonstrated how ...
